My mate uses them and swears by them - only problem he's had is condensation in wet or really hot weather but looking at it the new ones have a vent so could be eliminated

I had a car one a few years back, actually make that nearly 20 years ago :smt107, anyway was made of a thick polythyne, as it went onto a concrete drive I could leave the embeded ground achors there (two of them), 5 minutes with a bolt gun and the job was done, never had a porblem using it ever though it was twin the size of the bike version, even had a bench at the far end and could work on bikes under it in the rain (used to prop the front up on a step ladder kept in there), good bit of kit, lasted well in fact I think I binned it as we were moving and it'd been there 7 years, the actual cover lasted better than the galvanised frame as that had rubber a bit on the floor, but still well servicable, given a lick of paint would probably have done another 7 years easily.

Cheers Mark.
